Intended Use
The Bard® No-rinse Hemoconcentrator is intended for the relief or mitigation of overhydration in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary procedures and to increase the concentration of cells and proteins in the blood.
Device Description
The Bard No-rinse Hemoconcentrator and accessory kit for hemoconcentration serve the needs of cardiopulmonary procedures. Connected to the external cardiopulmonary blood circuit, the hemoconcentrator generates ultrafiltrate with electrolyte and solute compositions similar to that of plasma water. The Bard' No-rinse Hemoconcentrators are made of glycerin-free polysulphone membranes. The no-rinse feature provides convenience of inserting the device into the external cardiopulmonary blood circuit without the need to rinse the device.

No
The description focuses on the physical components and function of a hemoconcentrator, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is intended for "the relief or mitigation of overhydration in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary procedures and to increase the concentration of cells and proteins in the blood," which directly aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

This device is a hemoconcentrator, used to remove fluid and concentrate blood components during cardiopulmonary procedures, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical medical device (hemoconcentrator) made of polysulphone membranes, intended to be connected to an external cardiopulmonary blood circuit. It is not software.

Based on the provided information, the Bard® No-rinse Hemoconcentrator is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "relief or mitigation of overhydration in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary procedures and to increase the concentration of cells and proteins in the blood." This describes a therapeutic intervention performed directly on the patient's blood within an external circuit, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details how the device is "Connected to the external cardiopulmonary blood circuit" and "generates ultrafiltrate." This confirms its use within a patient's blood circuit during a medical procedure.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing a sample to diagnose a condition, monitor a disease, or determine a patient's health status. The device's function is to modify the composition of the blood itself.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Bard Hemoconcentrator does not fit this description.

Summary of Performance Studies

To determine the adequacy of the HC40TS as a hemoconcentrator the following performance testing was done: Cell damage, protein analysis, sieving coefficient, dynamic prime volume, ultrafiltration rate, and pressure drop. Results of this testing indicate that the HC40TS performs in a manner that is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

§ 876.5860 High permeability hemodialysis system.

(a)
Identification. A high permeability hemodialysis system is a device intended for use as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure, fluid overload, or toxemic conditions by performing such therapies as hemodialysis, hemofiltration, hemoconcentration, and hemodiafiltration. Using a hemodialyzer with a semipermeable membrane that is more permeable to water than the semipermeable membrane of the conventional hemodialysis system (§ 876.5820), the high permeability hemodialysis system removes toxins or excess fluid from the patient's blood using the principles of convection (via a high ultrafiltration rate) and/or diffusion (via a concentration gradient in dialysate). During treatment, blood is circulated from the patient through the hemodialyzer's blood compartment, while the dialysate solution flows countercurrent through the dialysate compartment. In this process, toxins and/or fluid are transferred across the membrane from the blood to the dialysate compartment. The hemodialysis delivery machine controls and monitors the parameters related to this processing, including the rate at which blood and dialysate are pumped through the system, and the rate at which fluid is removed from the patient. The high permeability hemodialysis system consists of the following devices:(1) The hemodialyzer consists of a semipermeable membrane with an in vitro ultrafiltration coefficient (K
uf ) greater than 8 milliliters per hour per conventional millimeter of mercury, as measured with bovine or expired human blood, and is used with either an automated ultrafiltration controller or anther method of ultrafiltration control to prevent fluid imbalance.(2) The hemodialysis delivery machine is similar to the extracorporeal blood system and dialysate delivery system of the hemodialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5820), with the addition of an ultrafiltration controller and mechanisms that monitor and/or control such parameters as fluid balance, dialysate composition, and patient treatment parameters (e.g., blood pressure, hematocrit, urea, etc.).
(3) The high permeability hemodialysis system accessories include, but are not limited to, tubing lines and various treatment related monitors (e.g., dialysate pH, blood pressure, hematocrit, and blood recirculation monitors).
(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are FDA's:(1) “Use of International Standard ISO 10993 ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Device—Part I: Evaluation and Testing,’ ”
(2) “Guidance for the Content of 510(k)s for Conventional and High Permeability Hemodialyzers,”
(3) “Guidance for Industry and CDRH Reviewers on the Content of Premarket Notifications for Hemodialysis Delivery Systems,”
(4) “Guidance for the Content of Premarket Notifications for Water Purification Components and Systems for Hemodialysis,” and
(5) “Guidance for Hemodialyzer Reuse Labeling.”

Indications
Bard HC40TS
hemoconcentratorThe Bard No-rinse Hemoconcentrator is intended for the relief or mitigation of
overhydration in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary procedures and to
increase the concentration of cells and proteins in the blood.
Bard HC70TS
hemoconcentratorThe Bard HC70TS Hemoconcentrator with Tubing Set is intended for use as
an ultrafiltration system to remove excess fluid during and/or following
cardiopulmonary bypass procedures where acute hemodilution has been
employed.
Research Medical
Biofilter 140
hemoconcentratorThe RMI BioFilter Hemoconcentrator is intended for use as an ultrafiltration
device for the relief or mitigation of overhydration in patients undergoing
cardiopulmonary bypass procedures and to decrease the concentration of
plasma water in blood.
Fresenius Hemoflow
F40 hemodialyzerHemoflow dialyzer Series F (High-Flux) are designed for single use in acute
